Summary: This tour is highly worth it! You get to experience a some hidden gems of Greece! The temple of Apollo was so interesting and esucational, train was beautiful and an amazing feat. The mountain towns you drive through are so fun and quaint with amazing food. The caves are stunning and a must see. Such a unique experience. Also, our tour guide Theo was so knowledgeable and fun to talk to. He is an archeologist and studied ancient history… what more could you want out of a tour guide. I would do another tour with him in a heartbeat.

Summary: I booked this trip from Canada before we arrived in greece. I was very quickly was contacted by the owner, Nikos to arrange the excursion. Nikos continued to be very communicative and also kept us informed as to what to expect and who our driver would be. We went on this full day tour, with Theo as our guide. We were picked up from our hotel, and began our journey. Theo was very friendly and answered all of our questions ... There were many! The entire day was filled with beautiful scenery, endless history and absolutely delicious food. The only downside is we eventually had to end our day and say goodbye to Theo!!! Thank you Nikos for the wonderful opportunity and big thank to Theo for being such a wonderful travel companion! -Bethany and Ryan From Canada
